A group of tree swallows sit on a rope rail along a boardwalk. Their bright blue coloring is highlighted by their white breast feathers

Tree swallows taking a moment to rest during a cold day at the marsh. As we followed the boardwalk, they continuously took flight and landed in our path.

Migrant workers in the Gulf states live in extremely precarious situations and will not have and will even be refused the resources to protect themselves and be able to leave.

The entire Middle East is popping off. Not to mention Pakistan. A major clusterfuck.

somebody: hey what do you call quiet carpets
me: *shhrugs*

She’s learnt her lesson about wanting hotels full of foreigners and immigrants being burnt down. See. Prison does work

YET.

The FBI being on high alert for terrorist actions is important right now.

Too bad they fired and gutted their counterterrorism capacity

These guys were selling t-shirts until they needed a war to cover up the intentional damage they did to the economy and the president's involvement in a pedophilia scandal.

And ANOTHER thing..

Pullman INVARIABLY has to let us know the body shape/size of EVERY SINGLE incidental character that we come across..!!

He's PARTICULARLY fond of "stocky", but in the past 5 mins of listening, I've also heard "slender" and "heavy".

I reiterate, I LOVE his writing, but STILL..

I’m actually not sure we can come back from “prediction markets for war crimes”, as a society. I think this might be it for us.

“Not everything has to be transactional,” I explain to my golden retriever

Grammarly has a "humanizer" function.

Think about it. You, a human, employ this tool to help you write, then you have to "humanize" the output. With a machine.

The cool thing about Wyoming is how quickly you can disappear into the wilderness when you need to.

Perhaps it’s the time of the morning, but Radio 4 Today seems quite obscenely cheerful and upbeat about the war - they’re having a whale of a time, especially the presenter who’s gone to Tel Aviv for a bit of a thrill. Utterly unserious.

This is a widely accepted norm journalists are taught to convince themselves they believe in, but it's not at all obvious why a publication should have to publish an op-ed merely because it represents the president's point of view. That's a media market and branding decision major papers have made.

Once, the truth below was common knowledge among adults

Richard Hanania tweet: Has any theory in international relations been more discredited than blowback? It turns out you can just kill bad people and everything is fine.

I swear these people don't have object permanence

Hell. Hell is where you go.

A bomb disposal situation with expert aware he is in a comic.

Sketch while waiting in line.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

I get why/that people say this, but dont' underestimate this:

all other social networks are invested in making sure that posts that link to journalism remain buried, or at least never go viral.

BlueSky doesn't do that. That makes it very valuable to a ton of newsrooms righ tnow.

Day one of the bombings it was important to target the girls' school. Over 51 children dead. A useful heuristic to figure out if something is evil or not is: does it start with us killing children. As this HAS started in us killing children. This is old news. Us killing children.

39 years ago, there were only 27 California condors in the world. As of 2025, we now have 607, including 392 that are living free in the wild.

Goddammit, even THIS sounds like a saucy innuendo, you LEWDSTER you..!!

#MurdochGutterMedia has ruined the world for generations to come.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.

If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

A reminder that fascist Mussolini invaded Abyssinia partly to divert from domestic economic troubles at home.
